What do I need to know about living in Waterloo?

When we asked people what advice they would give someone preparing to move to Waterloo, they said:

"Expats considering retiring in Waterloo should be aware that the city is located in the French-speaking region of Wallonia, and that the official language is French. It is important to have a basic understanding of the language before moving to the area. Expats should also be aware that the cost of living in Waterloo is relatively high, and that the city is well-connected to the rest of Belgium and Europe by public transport. Additionally, expats should be aware that the city is home to a number of cultural attractions, including the Lion's Mound, the Wellington Museum, and the Royal Museum of the Armed Forces and Military History.
